Personal Warning Apparatus
First Claim
1. A personal warning apparatus comprising at least one relative motion detector adapted to be positioned on or around the body of an individual, an evaluation module, and at least one communication means, the at least one relative motion detector being operatively linked to the evaluation module, and the evaluation module being operatively linked to the at least one communication means, wherein the evaluation module responsive to an evaluation is able to send an alarm signal to the at least one communication means, and wherein the evaluation module has a predetermined activation threshold.

34. A method of generating a personal warning comprising the steps of:
-
detecting the movement of an individual relative to at least one plane of the individual'"'"'s body using at least one relative motion detector; and activating a communication means based on the relative motion detected; wherein the communication means is activated when the relative motion of the individual is outwith a predetermined activation threshold. - View Dependent Claims (35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
